298: Lord of Yanshan City

“I, Guo Feng, will enter the city on my mount. Clear the way, or don't blame my mount for trampling people!”

Guo Feng sneered, standing on the back of the Ancient Qiongqi, his gaze like a knife, confronting the general.

His voice carried extremely far.

Everyone inside and outside the city heard it clearly!

Just this one sentence shocked many people!

“You’re asking for death!”

The general's eyes were sharp. In hundreds of years, no one had ever been so arrogant.

As he spoke, a gigantic Phantom Spirits figure emerged behind him.

At the same time, a spear pierced through the air.

In an instant, it was as if thunder exploded between heaven and earth.

The terrifying impact had completely sucked the air dry around them.

The power of level eighty erupted in an instant.

An amplification of more than ten times.

It made people feel extreme fear!

“Nothing more than this, yet you dare to stop me?”

Guo Feng sneered, the Mystic Dragon Spirit Blade in hand, and with a backhand slash, he met the attack.

Boom!

Boom!

Two massive blade lights instantly struck towards the opponent.

Eighteen-times ultimate skill amplification!

Twelve-times divine sense amplification!

Two-times Mystic Dragon Spirit Blade amplification!

Two-times spirit talisman amplification!

Four-times Earth Sovereign Qi amplification!

At this moment, he actually unleashed a terrifying thirty-eight-times amplification!

“Not good!”

The general felt this terrifying power, and his heart trembled violently.

Where did such a terrifying existence come from?

Before he could react, the spear's force was blasted apart!

The long spear also flew backward violently!

Boom!

The general was instantly struck, blood bursting from his entire body, and his powerful armor was covered in blade marks.

He crashed violently against the city wall.

Cracking the city wall!

One must know that this city wall was made of high-grade crystals, refined through special methods.

Even a seventh-grade expert using all their strength couldn't leave any marks on it!

It was a true copper wall and iron bastion!

“Kill!”

“Strong enemy attacking the city!”

“Prepare for battle!”

At this moment, the generals who came with this general roared in unison.

While forming a formation, they rushed forward to block Guo Feng.

“Stop!”

Just then, a majestic voice came, and a powerful spiritual pressure enveloped everyone.

Even Qiongqi stopped.

Then, a young man in white, holding a long flute, appeared before Guo Feng and crew, like a graceful young master from the mortal world.

“Greetings, City Lord!”

Everyone immediately bowed down.

It turned out that this person was the current City Lord of Yanshan City, Yanshan Star River!

“What strong spiritual power!”

Guo Feng raised an eyebrow, standing on Qiongqi’s back, and looked at the man.

This man looked young, but in reality, the aura on his body also carried a sense of age.

At least two hundred years old!

He also knew from Yang Cuo that the Yan Shan City Lord was an eighty-ninth level ultimate expert.

He had been stuck at this realm for decades.

Fortunately, he cultivated the Great Dao Heart Refining Art, and his spiritual power was not weak.

He looked at the other party indifferently and said, “Are you the Yan Shan City Lord? I want to enter your Yanshan City without dismounting, isn't that reasonable?”

“Is your esteemed surname Guo?”

Yanshan Star River, however, did not answer Guo Feng's question but asked in return.

Guo Feng nodded: “My name is Guo Feng, never changing!”

“You come from Guo Wang City?”

Yanshan Star River asked again.

“What does that have to do with you?”

Guo Feng heard another useful piece of information—Guo Wang City!

A King City was an administrative unit second only to the imperial capital, the political center of the kings' fiefdoms.

A King City governed dozens of main cities.

And a main city managed thousands of large and small cities.

And this Guo Wang City might be the fiefdom of the so-called Ancient Family.

“A young master from a King City, coming to my Yanshan City, naturally doesn't need to abide by commoners' rules. However, your mount is too large; entering like this would cause panic among the populace.”

Yanshan Star River cupped his hands, “How about you ask the Young Master to put away his mount, and then come with me to the City Lord’s Mansion? I will host a welcoming banquet for you?”

His words were considered a concession.

The dignified City Lord of a main city governing over a hundred million people.

An eighty-ninth level ultimate expert!

Speaking to him like this was already giving him great face!

The other people present were all filled with surprise.

One must know that Yanshan Star River was the sole king within a radius of ten thousand miles!

His word was law!

His status was supreme!

“Alright.”

Guo Feng didn't continue to dwell on whether to ride such a large mount and directly break into the barrier.

His goal was to draw out the City Lord.

To establish his persona.

Making it known to everyone was enough.

As he spoke, he waved his hand, signaling everyone to dismount from Qiongqi's back, and then put Qiongqi into the Beast Taming Circle.

He cupped his hands, “City Lord, I apologize for the offense.”

“It is our inadequate hospitality.”

Yanshan Star River cupped his hands and then said to the severely wounded general: “General Luhe, you have also rendered meritorious service in defending the city. Please rest and recover first, and then go to the internal treasury to claim a hundred lieyang stones.”

“Yes, thank you, City Lord!”

Luhe endured the pain and cupped his hands towards Yanshan Star River.

Guo Feng raised an eyebrow.

This Yanshan Star River was very generous; a casual reward was a hundred lieyang stones.

Of course, Luhe was an eighth-grade expert.

He must be a capable subordinate of Yanshan Star River.

If he wasn’t generous to such a person, then Yanshan Star River would have no one under him.

“Young Master Guo, please follow me.”

Yanshan Star River then smiled and invited Guo Feng to directly pass through the barrier on the city wall and enter Yanshan City.

As soon as Guo Feng entered, he felt the prosperity and lively atmosphere washing over him.

It was different from the wilderness he had encountered all the way from the Lieyang Mountain Region.

The Lieyang Clan, compared to Yanshan City, was indeed not on the same level at all.

It was perfectly fine to call it a remote and impoverished place.

Guo Feng and Yanshan Star River flew over a hundred kilometers before arriving at the central inner city.

Just this inner city alone was ten times larger than the Forbidden City in Beijing, China.

Of course, the architectural styles were vastly different.

The layouts were also not entirely the same.

They arrived at a grand hall, where Yanshan Star River ordered fine wine and delicacies to be served.

He also summoned musicians and dancers for entertainment.

Guo Feng found that their delicacies and gourmet food were largely similar to Chinese cuisine.

They also had hot dishes, cold dishes, pastries, and snacks.

They even had spicy, fresh, and aromatic flavors.

The plating was also very exquisite.

The main theme was luxury and grandeur.

Because Guo Feng found that many dishes used certain parts of demon beasts.

Containing rich spiritual energy.

And the fine wine, similar to Chinese liquor, was a refined white spirit.

Yanshan Star River also called his other sons, daughters, and honored guests to accompany them.

And he learned that Yanshan Star River had eighteen sons and five daughters.

Yan Shan Chi was merely a young city lord who was relatively favored, but his strength was only average.

Guo Feng chatted with them and found that they occasionally tried to pry information from him.

He didn't care, only speaking about the living environment in the ancient dramas he was familiar with.

Making the other party feel ambiguous.

The banquet ended in the afternoon.

Yanshan Star River invited Guo Feng to the backyard of the palace, where they were alone.

He looked at Guo Feng and said, “Young Master Guo, I’m afraid you are not from Guo Wang City, and perhaps not even from the Guo Clan. Who exactly are you?”

“Heh.”

Guo Feng chuckled, “I never said I was from Guo Wang City, nor am I from the Guo Clan you speak of.”

He paused, “You can try to guess where I come from?”

“Two places.”

Yanshan Star River’s eyes narrowed, “The Land of Sins, or an Ancient Family.”

“However, the Land of Sins has not opened for ten thousand years, and your strength does not seem to be from the Land of Sins.”

He stared at Guo Feng, “You must be from an Ancient Family that stays out of worldly affairs!”

“What if I am? What if I’m not?”

Guo Feng waved his hand, “I came out to travel mainly to broaden my horizons. Actually, it’s mainly because my home is too boring.”

“Secondly, I also heard that the Empress is recruiting a son-in-law. If she is a beauty, I wouldn't mind having some fun with her!”

He laughed, “Do you think I am qualified for that?”

“Have some fun?!”

Yanshan Star River raised an eyebrow, becoming even more puzzled.

People from the Guo Clan would certainly not dare to say such words.

Then Guo Feng could only be from an Ancient Family!

He smiled, “But you don't have an identity!”

“I don't necessarily need any identity.”

Guo Feng looked arrogant.

“Alright.”

Yanshan Star River actually had an idea, but it was not appropriate to say it on their first meeting.

“Then I won't say more.”

He clapped his hands, “Mei Niang, come!”

After he finished speaking, one of his beautiful young daughters walked over. He instructed, “Young Master Guo said earlier that he wants to exchange some things at the trade market. You accompany me and make sure to take good care of Young Master Guo.”

“Understood!”

Yan Mountain Enchantress smiled sweetly, then led Guo Feng away.

As soon as they left, Yanshan Star River frowned and said, “This person’s origin is unknown. I’m afraid he is not from an Ancient Family. Lu Ming, go to the entrance of the Land of Sins and investigate.”

“Yes!”

As his voice fell, a voice came from afar.

Then, a figure broke through the air and sped away.

Yanshan Star River then muttered to himself: “Since you want to have some fun with the Empress, then I will help you. Heh, an eighth-grade cultivation at just a dozen years old, able to severely wound General Luhe with one strike, how interesting!”

As he spoke, he raised his hand again, “Jiukong, go to Guo Wang City and invite Second Master Guo to come.”

“Yes!”

Another voice came from afar.
